The art of Ebru is used as an ornament of book covers, marble, to paintings, making it famous from Istanbul to Italy, Germany, France and, England. In Europe this painting on water is known as 'Turkish Paper'.

The essence of the Ebru Technique is how we understand the flow of water as a determinant of paint direction. After the painting is formed the next step is to put the paper onto the surface of the water and lift slowly after a silent moment.

If you have tried, make Ebru painting is not too difficult. It only takes a water canvas, oil paint, long wire, and of course willpower. It starts by spreading the droplets of various colored oil paint on the water canvas, then the paint droplets are made like following the water ripple with the wire cut.
